Leather Drawing Journal Daily Travel Diary, Antique Handmade Vintage Bound Rustic Writing Notebook, Genuine Leather- Quality Unlined/Blank Cream Paper, Art Sketchbook, 7x10 Inches-Brown

I just started using it! It is soft and nice real leather. I love you can re fill it once you are done. I bought a green one, the color is very dark, looks closer to black. I don’t mind but someone might. One thing have to get use to, that sketching, writing on the lap is a challenge. So soft :) But I really wanted real leather sketchbook. I just have to adjust. Love using it.

Very well crafted and looks authentic and rustic perfect for everyday notes at where I work at.

Love this item! Very soft leather, lays flat, high quality paper.

Bought this journal for a guest book for my wedding and it’s amazing! The leather such great quality and the notebook is well constructed and stays open on a table great. I love the paper on the inside, it doesn’t have lines and is very thick so the pens don’t leak through. Perfect wedding guest book or journal.

This leather is quite pretty - it's not exactly thick or dense or even all that soft, and feels a little dry in the inside, but when you fold it it spreads beautiful lightened crease marks like those high quality aged buffalo leathers. It's the only journal of its kind among many that I've found on Amazon that has this look - dark at first glance, and instantly gaining a gentle spread of creases (not just scratchy, harsh fold line) when you fold. That said, the leather doesn't have the full grain on it - it's sanded down, so the hand feel is decent but nothing to write home about, and like many of its contemporaries, this journal has a dry, powder-dust feel. Pages are meh; not aged but just dark colored paper that's been dunked in water and dried with water stains. For once it's got a true 9x6 size as it claims, and the wraparound cord, while a bit thin, also has that nice creased look and is soft to the touch. I'd like this to come in a different closure - something that isn't fussily wrapped around and around - and hopefully the seller offers the leather in a bit softer, thicker varieties in the future, and hopefully even refillable... with better paper. The smell of wet moldy paper is what caused me to return this.

Love this!!! Soft supple leather & great paper!!!

Love it! Beautiful and looks old. The paper is hard to draw on but I’m figuring it out! I love it

Got this journal for my history loving kid. It is exactly as pictured. Very nice.

This is a lovely journal. The paper is good quality and the cover is soft leather. I really like it.

Beautiful, rustic sketchbook with thick leather cover and quality paper. A good buy for me.

Love this journal. Was surprised by the quality of the paper as I was really buying it for the leather cover but the paper is great for all the different art mediums I use.

The low rating is primarily because of paper type that is not quite suitable for writing. It is more suitable for sketching. Writing using fountain pen, though the ink don't seep backside of the paper, but it loses its character, firmness. Also paper surface is quite rough. It is very close to paper used in kids art books. Pricing it so high just for leather wrap is not value for money.

this book is perfect for drawing and being a special art book. I love it.
